What else can I help you with?
Is 0 the freezing point of water?
Yes, it is true for Celsius scale.
What are 2 scales scientists use to measure temperature and what is the official Si unit for temperature?
The scales used by scientists are Celsius (or Centigrade) and Kelvin. Both use a degree which has the same value. However, the Kelvin scale is an absolute scale which means that 10K is 10 times "warmer" than 1K. This is not true for the Celsius scale.

Why is the kelvin scale used rather than the celsius scale?
Because the Kelvin scale is an absolute scale. In the context of thermodynamics, 2 K is twice as "hot" as 1 K. And 3 K is three times as "hot". That is not true of the Celsius or Fahrenheit (or other temperature) scales.
What is true of the Celsius scale?
The Celsius scale is a temperature scale where water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100 degrees at standard atmospheric pressure. It is based on the properties of water, making it a commonly used scale in science and everyday life. It is widely used globally for measuring temperature.
Would the Celsius scale zero degrees is assigned to the temperature at which water condenses?
No, the Celsius scale sets zero degrees as the freezing point of water and 100 degrees as the boiling point of water, with the scale divided into 100 equal parts between these two points. Water condenses at 100 degrees Celsius.
How do you use kelvin scale?
The Kelvin scale measures temperature. You can use it the same way you would use the Fahrenheit scale or the Celsius scale, but it also has an additional use. Since the Kelvin scale starts at the true zero of temperature, when there is no random thermal motion, rather than starting at some arbitrary point such as the freezing point of water (Celsius) or the coldest temperature that was obtainable in the laboratory at the time the Fahrenheit scale was first devised, you can make much more meaningful comparisons in Kelvin. If something has twice the temperature in Kelvin than something else has, then it actually is twice as hot. That is not true of other temperature scales. 20oC is not twice as hot as 10oC. But 20oK actually is twice as hot as 10oK.
Why do you use kelvin temperature scale?
The Kelvin scale starts at a true zero; 0o K is the temperature at which there is actually no heat. Therefore, you get a true measure of heat using this system; an object at twice the temperature in kelvins is actually twice as hot. That is not true of other temperature scales such as Celsius or Fahrenheit.
What is an incremental scale?
An incremental scale is a measurement scale where the units are equally spaced and represent a consistent increment of the underlying attribute being measured. It allows for consistent comparisons between values but does not have a true zero point. Examples include Likert scales and temperature scales in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
What compounds are produced from the product of the Calvin cycle?
It is true.
What religion did John Calvin find?
John Calvin found true religion. He founded the Reformed and Presbyterians churches.
-273.15 celsius is the temperature of absolute zero?
Absolute zero is 0 degrees Kelvin, -273.15 degrees Celsius, and −459.67 degrees Fahrenheit. Short answer: No. Technically, absolute zero could be defined to be whatever number you wanted on some arbitrary scale. However, on the two commonly used scales - Fahrenheit & Celsius - 273.15 is not absolute zero. I'm guessing that you actually meant -273.15. On the Celsius scale, this is absolute zero (to 5 significant figures).
